Quiters, Have you heard of This Hop?


I used to do this hop before I started blogging. If you are a quilter you can collect the patterns as you go at the end of the hop you have your info for this beautiful quilt.

Search for 13 Botanical Garden Sampler Blocks in the March FabShop Hop!

Stroll along the quilted garden path to a Botanical Garden Sampler. A medley of 13 flower blocks set on point, with a horizontal zigzag setting evoke visions of nature and allow you to create your own Botanical Garden quilt. Each 12" flower block features an array of colors and uses quick piecing methods; easily made by quilters of all levels. Enjoy your finished 81 1/2"x 98 1/2" quilt while relaxing in your favorite surroundings.
The bonus blocks circulate through the "Prize Verification Confirmation Page." This page appears after you have successfully registered for prizes on the "Prize Verification Page." When you find a bonus block, click on the block to download a PDF of that block and assembly instructions. Also, check your list of visited shops in your member area to re-download block pdfs you have missed downloading.
Remember that the bonus blocks are moving around all the time, so you may need to check the shops more than once to find them all—a great reason to revisit your favorite shops!
From April 1-30, the material list and assembly directions, plus your March Botanical Garden Sampler bonus block finds will be in your member area. After April 30, the Botanical Garden Sampler quilt pattern or kit may be available for purchase at these shops.
